Everything about Membrane

The wood industry, as one of the fundamental and vital industries in many parts of the world, including construction, furniture making, household appliances production, and handicrafts, is utilized. Considering the diversity and expansion of this industry, the use of additives and new technologies to improve the quality and performance of products is of particular importance. One of these technologies is the use of membrane adhesives in bonding and adding value to wooden products.

Membrane Vacuum Glue

Chemically, it is considered part of water-based adhesives, made from the dispersion of polyurethane in water, which, through the addition of various additives and a physical and chemical process, turns into liquid membrane under vacuum after evaporation. It is then used under high heat to bond HPL, PVC, and ABS coatings onto various MDF sheets.

This glue is recommended for both dark and light-colored products. Note that the operating temperature for Luminaq vacuum membrane glue is between 110 to 130 degrees Celsius. Its viscosity ranges from 800 to 2500 centistokes, and it is compatible with various PVC coatings. The highest performance coefficient of this glue is observed when used with wood industry machinery. For this reason, it is considered one of the best wood industry adhesives.

Application of Membrane Vacuum Glue

Due to its excellent viscosity, vacuum glue is used for coating various kitchen cabinets, bedroom sets, consoles, and shoe racks. The best coating result with this glue is achieved when using a vacuum press machine. You can view Luminaq vacuum membrane products on the product section of the website or by clicking here.

Some Wide Applications of Membrane Glue in the Wood Industry

Wooden Sheet Bonding: In furniture and wood product industries, membrane glue is used to bond wooden sheets to increase product structural strength and stability.
Wood Edge Bonding: In the production of cabinets, parquets, and other products, membrane glue is used to bond wood edges to enhance surface quality.
Bonding Various Components: Membrane glues are used to bond various components of a wooden product such as doors, molds, and decorative details.
Compatible Machines with Membrane Vacuum Glue

Luminak 149 membrane glue is fully compatible with various vacuum press machines or European, Asian, and Iranian membrane vacuum machines, and its greatest effectiveness is observed when used on sheets made of PP, PVC, ABS, or natural wood.

How to Use Luminaq Membrane Glue

The workpiece surface should be carefully cleaned from any dust, and if necessary, sanded.
The glue with high viscosity should be sprayed on the entire surface of the workpiece.
Let it dry for about 30 to 60 minutes in the airflow.
Then place the workpiece on the vacuum press machine stand.
Pull the coating over the entire surface of the workpiece and press.
Perform pressing until the coating adheres.
Finally, remove the workpiece from the machine and trim any excess edges with a cutter.

Quality of Membrane Glue

Membrane adhesives, as a type of polymer adhesives, have unique properties that make them a suitable option for bonding wooden components. These adhesives have the ability to create strong and durable bonds, increasing the strength and stability of wooden products. Additionally, due to their flexibility and resistance to various environmental conditions, these adhesives are suitable for various applications in the wood industry.

Summary

The use of membrane adhesives as one of the main tools in the wood industry improves the performance, quality, and strength of products. With the unique properties of these adhesives and their potential for future development, their use can contribute to the growth and advancement of the wood industry.
